Due to changes in our environmental policies at Williams Heavy Industries, we are implementing a 'Leave No Trace' Policy. While 'Leave No Trace' practices require extra effort and dilligence, we believe that the extra effort is justified to ensure WHI's vision for the future of our corporate lands.

Leave No Trace Policy Guidelines:
  1. When first marking and establishing a site, it is important to first harvest and remove all wildlife from the area.  LEAVE NO TRACE of all original fauna in the site area.

  2. When clearing a site, remember to remove all vegetation from the area.  It is important to LEAVE NO TRACE of any of the original plant life.

  3. The stumping and grubbing process must be complete.  Again, LEAVE NO TRACE of any organic matter at the site.  All stumps, roots, and topsoil must be buried or hauled offsite.  Sometimes it may be necessary to excavate all the way down to bedrock to remove all organic matter.
  4. After Stumping and grubbing is complete, it is then important to LEAVE NO TRACE of the original topography.  All surface features shall be cut and filled as necessary to create the largest possible cleared and leveled area within the clearing limits of the site.
  5. Lastly, installing concrete and pavement over the entire site area insure that this site will remain clear and completes the WHI Leave No Trace Policy.
Our goal at Williams Heavy Industries is to 'leave no trace' of the original environment.  Making a difference is important to all of us at WHI.
